Come Away Again and Stay

To those grieving a loss of their loved one-

Me crying out:

Sinking down so low, I can’t catch my breath

It’s hard to even breathe,

You quickly come near to hold me close

And remind me, You’ll never leave.

This pain that’s so deep You’ve felt too

When You briefly lost Your Only Son,

You know the depths of my heartache and pain

And how my whole world has come undone.

You gently wipe each tear, collecting each one

For they are precious in Your eyes,

I see the anguish in Your face

As You listen to my deep cries.

As my heart is breaking

You remind me Yours is too,

We are joined as One

And You feel all I do.

So in my pain and suffering

I am not alone,

For You feel what I feel

Even though You are on The Throne!

The Father’s Response:

Many do not stop to realize the bond

Between the Father and His child,

It’s something Divine, Pure, Treasured,

Set apart and undefiled.

I’m here to gather you up

When you feel you can’t go on.

Just lean into Me, My child

And I will make you strong.

Lay your weary head upon Me

Listen to My beating heart,

Take your time, no need to leave

Until you feel ready again to start.

Then, when you’re ready

I’ll be there to lead you on your Way,

And whenever you find you need to

Come away with Me again, and stay.
